Ok thx, I didn't have the part below @@ -1164,6 +1164,15 @@ in my kernel, so I'll recompile with it and try again. Just changing to 500us i just know found out that when only connecting HDMI it doesn't hang for some seconds and then hangs as always.

Besides that I only tested with VGA which hangs instantly for me.

Any ideas why DP works but VGA/DVI don't? (I have no DP-device here to verify if it works for me.)
